Chapter 720 Acting Skills
For Li Xian, the son of both civil and military, Gaozong's feelings have always been quite complicated, from his father's point of view, Gaozong is extremely favored, from the emperor's point of view, Gaozong is wary of Li Xian, although he never showed it, but in action is to set up several insurances, including letting the Empress Wu take charge, and vigorously supporting the Yue Wang family, the purpose of this series of dark techniques is to limit Li Xian's energy, of course, this is just a precautionary measure for the emperor, Gaozong really has never had too much suspicion of Li Xian, which also has a lot to do with Li Xian's decentness, in general, Gaozong is still very satisfied with Li Xian, the prince, but that is only in the past, at this time, Gaozong was already suspicious of Li Xian under a series of hints from Empress Wu, and when he heard Li Xian blatantly break into the palace, his heart immediately panicked, and he didn't know how to deal with Fang Hao.
"Your Majesty."
Empress Wu didn't want Gaozong to meet Li Xian, but he also knew that the eunuchs outside obviously couldn't stop Li Xian's footsteps, and when he saw Gaozong in a daze there, his heart turned and he already had an idea, but when he saw him wiping his tears sadly, he called out sadly, although there were no other words, but all the grievances were already fully revealed.
"Well, Mei Niang is not afraid, I am here!"
As soon as he saw the weak appearance of Empress Wu, Gaozong seemed to have seen the situation when he first met Empress Wu thirty years ago, and a sense of pride suddenly rose in his heart, his chest immediately straightened, and he took Empress Wu into his arms in a heroic manner, and comforted him softly.
"The concubine knows."
Clinging to Gaozong's chest, which was really not thick, Empress Wu made a shy look, responded timidly, and buried her head deep in Gaozong's arms.
"Bastard, you're still stunned, go, bring that kid in!"
Gaozong was arrogant, and his courage was strong, and he glared at Cheng Denggao, who was dumbfounded, and scolded angrily.
"Ah, No, the old slave obeys, the old slave goes, this goes!"
Cheng Denggao has been following Empress Wu for some years, but he has never seen such a weak bird as Empress Wu, and for a while he really felt a sense of confusion in a dream, and when he was stunned, he was suddenly yelled by Gaozong, and his heart immediately panicked, and he shuddered suddenly, and he answered the promise indiscriminately, and fled out of the dormitory.
"Father's ......"
As soon as he turned the screen, Li Xian immediately glanced at the situation in the room quickly, this time he saw Gaozong standing tall, and the Empress Wu bowed his head and was silent, Li Xian had already guessed the general situation, and secretly sneered in his heart, but his face made a vice grievance, and he grabbed Gaozong's body in a few big steps, fell to his knees, and only called out with a trembling voice, and tears could not stop flowing down his cheeks.
"Huh? Xian'er, what's wrong with you, why are you so? ”
Gaozong originally made up his mind, planning to beat Li Xian as soon as he saw him, but he never expected Li Xian to cry before he spoke, and he was a little at a loss, and looked at Li Xian blankly, seeing that his grievances did not look like a fake, his heart immediately softened, rubbed his hands, and some asked in disbelief.
"Father, the child is afraid, father, the child has always been impartial to the country, never dared to exceed the rules half a step, so careful, but still framed by the villain, gossip is all over the sky, is to put the child in the unfilial land also, the child was shocked to hear this, anxious to see the father, but unexpectedly not through, the child is angry, had to trespass into the palace, has violated the palace rules, implore the father to punish."
Li Xian stretched out his hand to wipe away his tears, and reported it with a sad face, and his words were very clever to link the rumors flying all over the sky with the villain in the palace.
"What? Is there such a thing? Cheng Denggao, you are very much eating, and you dare to deceive! ”
As soon as he heard that Li Xian was actually intercepted by the eunuchs in private, Gao Zongdeng was furious, tilted his head sideways, stared at Cheng Denggao fiercely, and asked in an extremely unkind tone.
"Your Majesty is angry, Your Majesty is angry, the old slave is wronged, the old slave really doesn't know about this, Your Majesty."
The order to stop Li Xianjian's drive was given by Cheng Denggao, but how could he dare to admit it at this time, seeing Gaozong's anger coming at him, his legs and feet immediately weakened, and he fell to the ground and shouted loudly.
"Your Majesty, Father-in-law Cheng has always been reliable, and if he is not a rebellious person, there may be no misunderstanding."
Cheng Denggao is a loyal dog by the side of the Empress Wu, and it is impossible for the Empress Wu to sit back and watch him be attacked by Gaozong like this, and he did not wait for Gaozong to speak, so he interjected a sentence from the side.
"Your Majesty, the old slave is ineffective and should be punished, however, the strange thing is that it cannot but be investigated, and the old slave begs His Majesty to allow the old slave to find out."
With the help of the martial arts, Cheng Denggao immediately had the confidence to hurriedly plead along the pole.
"Hmph, you're still stunned here, get out, don't check it out for me, be careful of your skin!"
Although Gaozong is a little cowardly, he is not so easy to deceive, how can he not know that Li Xian's interception must have come from Cheng Denggao's handiwork, but because of the situation of the Empress Wu, it is not good to use Cheng Denggao as a method, and he can't help but feel irritable in his heart, the more he looks at Cheng Denggao, the more unpleasant he is, so he stomps his feet hatefully and drives Cheng Denggao out of the palace mercilessly.
"No, the old slave will do it, this will do it."
As soon as he heard that Gaozong didn't take this matter to attack himself, Cheng Denggao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, how dare he delay any longer, and hurriedly responded, and then withdrew from the dormitory in embarrassment.
"Xian'er, I really don't know about this, these bastards are derelict in their duties, they really deserve to die, don't worry, I will give you an explanation."
Previously, Empress Wu said something, and Li Xian hinted that although Gaozong was a little clever, he was not a wise person in the end, and his heart was already a mess at this time, and he couldn't tell who was playing tricks behind this incident, but no matter what, Li Xian's request to see was intercepted was an obvious fact, and Gaozong had to give Li Xian some explanations, which comforted Li Xian.
"The father's words are serious, the child's grievances are small, but the major affairs of the family and the country cannot be ambiguous, and now the court and China are discussing one after another, if there is no explanation, I am afraid that something big will happen, and the son of the emperor implores the father and the emperor to cut it!"
After a play, it can be regarded as turning back the unfavorable situation, but Li Xian did not plan to accept it when he saw it, but began to counterattack.
"Ah, this ......"
As soon as he heard Li Xian's words, Gaozong's head couldn't help but hurt again, just because what he wanted was to maintain the status quo, whether it was Li Xian's imprisonment or the arbitrariness of the Empress Wu, it was not a situation that Gaozong was happy to see, and now that things are so big, it is impossible to say without an explanation, but where to start with this statement, Gaozong is half-clueless.
"Xian'er doesn't have to be afraid, everyone in the world says that Xian'er has a Mingjun statue, when Ming Doctor was in Japan, he also said that Xian'er is Taizong, if Xian'er is in power, Niang Da can rest assured, alas, Niang'er is too late, let Xian'er take over the court early, it can be regarded as giving her a chance to breathe, I think Xian'er will not disappoint her mother?"
Empress Wu had already felt the pulse of Gaozong's quest for stability, and when he saw that Li Xian had the momentum of a counterattack, he refused to let Li Xian go, so he pretended to sigh with grievances, and it sounded like he was really making Xian, but after thinking about it again, it was full of the meaning of Sang scolding Huai, not only implying that Li Xian was impatient to usurp power, but also implying that Li Xian had the ability and means to stage the "Xuanwumen Change", and his intentions were self-evidently sinister.
"The queen mother's reputation is excessive, but the child has a little success, all of which are caused by the father's father and the queen's grace, I don't dare to boast and conceit, as for how others say, it is all nonsense that does not know the facts, my Tang Dynasty can have today's prosperity, all thanks to the diligence of the father and the queen of martial arts, and now there are villains who are vainly trying to separate my heavenly family's flesh and blood, and their hearts should be punished, and the son implores his father and the emperor to issue an edict to thoroughly investigate this matter, find out the culprit behind the scenes, and return the mother to justice, and also give the child a clean slate."
Empress Wu dug a pit in his words, Li Xian immediately reversed the color, and also laid a foreshadowing in his words, and even piggybacking on the ground insisted on stuffing Empress Wu into the sleeve, and the logic of the words was tight, and he was stunned that he did not leave the slightest gap for Empress Wu.
"It's not good for Xian'er to have this heart, mother, this thing is really windless and can't make waves, it should be investigated, as for fairness and injustice, it doesn't matter if my mother is unfair, but I really want to investigate, my heavenly face is not good-looking, alas, according to my mother, Xian'er is also long, it is not a matter to let my mother work on state affairs, and it is good to supervise the country, and it can save the head people and other people to chew the root of the tongue indiscriminately, what about the mother, you can also plant flowers and raise birds with peace of mind, but you can also have a good time, Xian'er, what do you say?"
Li Xian's heart is ruthless, but the Empress Wu knows very well, as soon as he heard that Li Xian insisted on investigating the case thoroughly, he couldn't help but be a little worried, afraid that Li Xian would really touch the handle, lest Li Xian take advantage of the situation, so he gently and skillfully said a word, and blocked the proposal for a thorough investigation, turned around, and ruthlessly attacked Li Xian's army.
"Why did Mei Niang say this, I still have to rely on you to support the overall situation, and I will not mention this matter again."
The Empress Wu wants to hand over power, the most anxious person is not Li Xian, but Gaozong, he doesn't want Li Xian to be in charge, so he will make him the emperor of Gaozong, so he pretended to be unhappy and flicked his sleeves, frowned and interjected.
"Father and Emperor Shengming, the sons and daughters also have this view, the overall situation of the court has the queen mother, and it will definitely not be chaotic, and the children can also follow the good students to learn, and work hard to help from the side, and they will definitely call me the Tang Dynasty forever, but this incident has happened, and there must be a statement after all, if the rumors do not stop, it will be unfavorable to the court situation, and the sons and daughters implore their father to make a decision."
Li Xian didn't expect to be in charge of this matter, he didn't care about Gaozong's decision, but he didn't want to be so cheap for nothing, so he echoed it, but in the end, it gave Gaozong a problem......
